Schiff ditches neutrality, endorses Berman in bitter race

Rep. Howard Berman (D-Valley Village) racked up a major endorsement in the form of Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank) in his bruising battle with Rep. Brad Sherman for a newly drawn San Fernando Valley congressional district seat.

Schiff's break from neutrality in the race between two Democrats follows a similar decision by Sen. Barbara Boxer last month.
